If this is the real deal (and it sure looks like it), then Adobe is looking to shake things with more than just the subscription pricing scheme coming up for the CS6 launch.

It looks like Amazon jumped the gun and took the links down after the fact. It appears that it will officially release on March 6 for a retail of $149 and the student version was around $75 (sorry, I didn’t get a screen cap of it). These features/specs all seem legit based on what we know about the beta. Keep your eyes peeled next week and we should have more (official) info on Lightroom 4 with definite pre-order options.
